It pretends nothing, it states clearly the facts that they got shot, as quickly as possible.
You didnt address the fact that they broke normal guidlines during the clean up procedure. But then you seem to avoid all the important questions! Call yourself a debunker?!

It is not precedent that the black boxes were not found. It has happened before.
Now, to destroy a building, even if you were using 20 year in the future tech they are sure to have their hands on, there has to be something to receive the signal, possibly bounce the signal( we know that the fireman had issue so the remote det to me is a moot point now) and then something to continue the reaction. No trace elements? Lets be honest and just agree that this cannot be possible without something bieng found. To this very day, bones and personal items are found. Is the piece out there? Makes for a nice story.
Then, there must be an accelerant..in place...something to initiate the events. No evidence of any of this.

You do realize that the more fringe details and hypothetical miracle technology you attempt to introduce into these conspiracy claims of yours, the further and further away you get from actual controlled demolitions, right? Gov't ninjas sneaking into a building and planting a bomb in any available trash can isn't controlled demolitions. It's simply a bomb.

Huh? Who got shot? I assure the the huge majority of people who worked on the ground zero site are very much alive..particularly Joel Meyerowitz, the guy who's publishing all these photos of the site.

What do you mean "they broke normal guidelines"? What the heck was normal guidelines for two giant towers collapsing and destroying five square blocks of NYC? You're making that up.

Every video of the collapse (that is, every video that Richard Gage doesn't fool with to make it look the way he wants it to look) shows the penthouse collapsed six seconds before the north side of the building did. NIST theorizes this is when the south side folded in on itself and collapsed. If this is correct then there isn't anything mysterious or even sinister about the north wall collapsing after everything holding it up to that point was gone.
Are you seriously suggesting the firemen needed to grab a calculator right in the middle of the 9/11 attack to calculate out exactly how much of the building was going to collapse for the benefit of you "inside job" conspiracy theorists? You're grasping at straws in desperation here to avoid admitting you're wrong and we both know it.
Since the drills on 9/11 were to practice intercepting incoming bombers from abroad rather than intercepting hijacked passenger craft, I'm going to say no, they didn't tell him about any drills to intercept hijacked passenger craft. I'm sure they didn't tell him about any plan to invade the moon for the same reason.
I answered your question about Barbara Olson. Now answer my question about Renee May.
From what I've been told "al-qaida" simply means "base", and refers to a camp Bin Laden's bunch occupied during the war against the Russians and the name for the group simply stuck. As for the other, you're going to need to back that claim up with a link, my friend- where has it ever been shown we're "supporting Al -Qaida in Libya or is it Syria"?

Anyone should take NIST's conclusions, and not theory as you state, and put it into practice...oh, that's right they did. When they rebuild WTC7. Sorry, they did not consult the entire fire department but when it came to designing the stairwells/safety/exists there were consultants who were firefighters used.
NIST creates the standards and they were updated after the WTC investigation and based off recommendations by numerous parties. It is in the NIST report and it's updates.edit on 22-5-2012 by esdad71 because: (no reason given)
Based on this comprehensive investigation, NIST concluded that the WTC towers collapsed because: (1) the impact of the planes severed and damaged support columns, dislodged fireproofing insulation coating the steel floor trusses and steel columns, and widely dispersed jet fuel over multiple floors; and (2) the subsequent unusually large jet-fuel ignited multi-floor fires (which reached temperatures as high as 1,000 degrees Celsius) significantly weakened the floors and columns with dislodged fireproofing to the point where floors sagged and pulled inward on the perimeter columns. This led to the inward bowing of the perimeter columns and failure of the south face of WTC 1 and the east face of WTC 2, initiating the collapse of each of the towers. Both photographic and video evidence—as well as accounts from the New York Police Department aviation unit during a half-hour period prior to collapse—support this sequence for each tower.

I'll tell you what. I'll give you a million euros if you can provide one solid piece of evidence that 9/11 was an inside job.

If thermite was used to take down two 100 story buildings something would be left...like the passport. Also, look up other air crashes and it is not uncommon for many things to survive intact. Unique occurances must be applied to the entire scope of the incident and not just what fits your story. That is what research is for.

This goes back to 93 and they should have had something that worked then, it is lobbyists, unions and contracts that gave those men and women on 9/11 #ty equipment, not just Rudy on 9/11. NYC should have done in 93 what they did after 9/11 with a better task force and making sure everyone could communicate. It didn't. Why, because this guy hates this guy and this guy hates this guy and before you know it the human element is gone.
The US was caught with its pants down on 9/11 and we only have ourselves to blame. Once you start to look at it like that and not "20 camel jockeys with pez dispensers take down airplanes" it takes on a different perspective. We knew 9/11 was coming, just not when. T
IAFF Letter Regarding Rudy Giuliani "What Giuliani showed following 9/11 is a disgraceful lack of respect for the fallen and those brothers still searching for them. He valued the money and gold and wanted the [World Trade Center] site cleared before he left office at the end of 2001 more than he valued the lives and memories of those lost." -- IAFF General President Harold Schaitberger

I'm full of knowledge and wisdom and self awareness and life experience..
And that tells me that 9/11 was not an inside job.

You like to give orders, don't you? Like telling people to do their homework,etc....your reference to dust and other non-nonsensical and non-applicable subjects to 9/11 are noted and filed.
What caused the thermite to burn or do you not understand what I am asking, by your statement, i would say not.

Read the whole post again slowly. The point I was making (and you obviously missed) was that without the baggage of the Official Story most people would agree these buildings were brought down with explosives. I am talking about the 3 collapses themselves, no other "facts" involved. Any person watching these collapses on video would assume explosives. Tell these same people that admitting explosives were in these buildings would implicate their government in a horrible crime and suddenly the explosives become "impossible". People just refuse to even consider the fact that their government could do such a thing. They will believe any story to make it not true. My whole point concerns perception. Someones perception of the exact same event can vary so drastically based on preconceived notions and beliefs. It really amazes me that people can lose the use of their critical thinking skills so easily. Anyway, your post is way off base and a little offensive. Try to tone it down with the name calling and start with presenting some of these facts you claim to possess. How's that sound?
I think you might be wrong there. The events were fairly straightforward to every person that day.
Plane+Tower = Fire+Damage, Fire+Damage = Collapse.
In other words, most people think that the planes brought down the towers. If you bring up WTC 7, sometimes people get confused for a while, because conspiracy folk never tell the whole story. I fell for the "must be a controlled demolition" for almost a whole week. Then, I did more research on it and learned I was wrong. The penthouse collapse, the pictures of damage and fire I've seen, and the testimony of firefighters who were there. It all adds up to the conclusion that explosives were not necessary.
Plus, the lack of sound that these explosives made tips me off to there not being any. Every single demolition video has explosions just before the collapse. 9/11 had dozens of cameras pointed at every building before they collapsed. No explosive sounds occurred before they collapsed. None. No one ever explains this to me. The answer might as well be "government magic."
